Notas del episodio
(Recorded 11-6-25)
"The Blind Side"🏈 is the story of Michael Oher's triumphant journey from experiencing homelessness in Memphis to being selected in the first round of the National Football League (NFL) draft. The movie's 🎥 portrayal of the relationship between Oher and his high school coach, Hugh Freeze, demonstrates the importance of recognizing how an individual's background massively can impact what motivates that person to be and to do their best. As a coach, I recently was reminded of this lesson in a very real way by one of the players on my 18U Showcase 🥎 Team. I failed.
Leaders - we must do a better job of recognizing what our people need and how best to be of service to them!👂I hope you enjoy this week's Leadership Video, which provides insight in how best we can accomplish this mission-critical goal.👀
As always, thank you so much for watching, for commenting and for sharing! 🫶❤️🙏
